NBS AND AUTODESK

NBS has a longstanding partnership with Autodesk, and has been recognised as an
Autodesk Solution Associate. The integration of NBS Chorus and Autodesk
Revit® allows users to develop their model and specification simultaneously,
which greatly reduces the risk of information becoming out of sync and enables
users to work smarter and more safely. Chorus also integrates with Autodesk 360,
Common Data Environment.

THE STORY SO FAR


INTELLIGENT SPECIFICATION WRITING

International design practice Ryder Architecture was the first NBS customer to
produce a specification using NBS Chorus, the cloud-based platform.
Transitioning from Microsoft Word (their previous specification writing tool) to
NBS Chorus has been a step change for Ryder, and has brought the process of
specification writing into the 21st century.

READ THEIR STORY


TRANSITIONING TO NBS CHORUS

Find out how international real estate consultancy Hollis has benefitted from
transitioning to NBS Chorus during the COVID-19 pandemic and how the NBS
training team helped.

READ THEIR STORY


COLLABORATION: A SUCCESS STORY

As part of a recent NBS webinar on collaborative specification writing, Chris
Dixon (Associate Architect at Franklin Ellis Architects) described how he had
worked with Dulux Trade to develop paint systems specifications for a complex
building project.
